Chapter 92, 21 verses
By the night when it covers
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. By the night enshrouding
Bei der Nacht, wenn sie (alles) überdeckt,
Waallayli itha yaghsha
And [by] the day when it appears
And the day resplendent
und dem Tag, wenn er (in seiner Helligkeit) erscheint,
Waalnnahari itha tajalla
And [by] He who created the male and female,
And Him Who hath created male and female,
und Dem, Der das Männliche und das Weibliche erschaffen hat!
Wama khalaqa alththakara waalontha
Indeed, your efforts are diverse.
Lo! your effort is dispersed (toward divers ends).
Euer Bemühen ist wahrlich verschieden.
Inna saAAyakum lashatta
As for he who gives and fears Allah
As for him who giveth and is dutiful (toward Allah)
Was nun jemanden angeht, der gibt und gottesfürchtig ist
Faamma man aAAta waittaqa
And believes in the best [reward],
And believeth in goodness;
und das Beste für wahr hält,
Wasaddaqa bialhusna
We will ease him toward ease.
Surely We will ease his way unto the state of ease.
so werden Wir ihm den Weg zum Leichteren leicht machen.
Fasanuyassiruhu lilyusra
But as for he who withholds and considers himself free of need
But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,
Was aber jemanden angeht, der geizt und sich für unbedürftig hält
Waamma man bakhila waistaghna
And denies the best [reward],
And disbelieveth in goodness;
und das Beste für Lüge erklärt,
Wakaththaba bialhusna
We will ease him toward difficulty.
Surely We will ease his way unto adversity.
so werden Wir ihm den Weg zum Schwereren leicht machen;
Fasanuyassiruhu lilAAusra
And what will his wealth avail him when he falls?
His riches will not save him when he perisheth.
und was soll sein Besitz ihm nützen, wenn er sich ins Verderben stürzt?
Wama yughnee AAanhu maluhu itha taradda
Indeed, [incumbent] upon Us is guidance.
Lo! Ours it is (to give) the guidance
Uns obliegt wahrlich die Rechtleitung.

And indeed, to Us belongs the Hereafter and the first [life].
And lo! unto Us belong the latter portion and the former.

Wainna lana lalakhirata waaloola
So I have warned you of a Fire which is blazing.
Therefor have I warned you of the flaming Fire
So habe Ich euch gewarnt vor einem Feuer, das lodert,
Faanthartukum naran talaththa
None will [enter to] burn therein except the most wretched one.
Which only the most wretched must endure,
dem nur der Unseligste ausgesetzt sein wird,
La yaslaha illa alashqa
Who had denied and turned away.
He who denieth and turneth away.
der (die Botschaft) für Lüge erklärt und sich abkehrt.
Allathee kaththaba watawalla
But the righteous one will avoid it -
Far removed from it will be the righteous
Doch davon ferngehalten wird der Gottesfürchtigste werden,
Wasayujannabuha alatqa
[He] who gives [from] his wealth to purify himself
Who giveth his wealth that he may grow (in goodness).
der seinen Besitz hingibt, um sich zu läutern,
Allathee yutee malahu yatazakka
And not [giving] for anyone who has [done him] a favor to be rewarded
And none hath with him any favour for reward,
und niemand hat bei ihm eine Gunst (anzurechnen), die vergolten werden müßte,
Wama liahadin AAindahu min niAAmatin tujza
But only seeking the countenance of his Lord, Most High.
Except as seeking (to fulfil) the purpose of his Lord Most High.
sondern (er handelt) im Trachten nach dem Angesicht seines höchsten Herrn.
Illa ibtighaa wajhi rabbihi alaAAla
And he is going to be satisfied.
He verily will be content.
Und er wird wahrlich zufrieden sein.
